A  few  quotes:  “Yin-Yang  dates  back


             many centuries and has been identified with



             Eastern religions of Confucianism, Buddhists,



             Taoism, and has been adopted by astrology,



             witchcraft, and sorcery. This philosophy of



             the  Yin-Yang  is  meant  to  explain  the



             mystery  of  good  and  evil  apart  from  the



             Scripture by saying these opposites exist in



             all  life  and  that  the  opposites  co-exist



             together and support one another.  It is the



             theory  of  dualism  —  the  visible  world



             consists  of opposites and yet the  two are



             equal and supporting forces in purpose and



             power.  Both  are  necessary  to  maintain



             harmony for life to exist.  The two powers



             are symbolized in light and dark, good and



             evil,  male  and  female,  water  and  fire,  and



                                                            73
